Stranglers

Stranglers - The Light lyrics

rate me

Predestination, not a thing that you'd plan

Misunderstanding, or a line in the sand

Thunder & lightning, did God have a hand

Wasn't it frightening, wasn't it sad

Would it have mattered, it the timing was bad

Something surprising, or nothing so sad

A night at the Wiskey, or was I just mad

Was it intended, why was I so glad

Was it so lovely, did it seem real

Was there a purpose, I just can't tell you

It was always darkness, time was never on your side

That's the rock of ages, and I could tell you why

I'd talk about the daytime, and tell you 'bout the night

You'll have to live in darkness to get some piece of mind

Don't try to make the darkness bright, night will always dim the light

Something is a happening, nothing ain't right

I've been a waiting, a waiting all night

Is it on purpose, who know if you might

I'm biting my nails, right through to the bone

I seem to be dripping my blood on the phone

It was always darkness, time was never on your side

That's the rock of ages, and I could tell you why

I'd talk about the daytime, and tell you 'bout the night

You'll have to live in darkness to get some piece of mind

Don't try to make the darkness bright, night will always dim the light

If I could tell you I might as well

If it was heard, the honest word

But you should know, like no one knows

The words, just can't be heard

Now it don't matter, it's too late to care

It's something you'd saviour, leave up in the air

You can't criticise it, it wouldn't be fair

You couldn't do that, you'd be such a bore

It's only the thinking, that altered the score

It was always darkness, time was never on your side

That's the rock of ages, and I could tell you why

I'd talk about the daytime, and tell you 'bout the night

You'll have to live in darkness to get some piece of mind

Don't try to make the darkness bright, night will always dim the light
